FDA to release draft guidance for organic egg producers

July22,2013

The Cornucopia Institute has raised concerns about a draft guidance to be released tomorrow (July 23, 2013). They are questioning whether regulations addressing outdoor access at organic egg producers is relevant or necessary, when, "[p]ublished studies show that cages, flies and large flock sizes are the real risk factors for salmonella contamination."

We will try to tell you how this guidance may impact our organic egg producers as such information becomes available.
